The GOP entered Tuesday's elections holding just three of the 13 governorships at stake and went away with seven triumphs including upsets over Arkansas' Gov. Bill Clinton and North Dakota's veteran Gov. Arthur Link. Former Republican Gov. Christopher "Kit" Bond won back the Missouri governorship in a rematch with Gov. Joseph Teasdale, and GOP county executive John Spellman found success in his second run for the governorship of Washington, winning the office of Gov. Dixy Lee Ray. The Republican victories, possibly aided by Ronald Reagan's coattails, gave the GOP a net gain of four governorships and narrowed the Democrats' control of the governorships to 27 to 23. The Republicans, who held 32 governorships before Richard Nixon got into trouble, moved their closest to parity since the years when 5 s IOC COUPON EXPIRES: JAN 31,1981 OFFER LIMITED TO ONE COUPON PER PURCHASE. application of this coupon, other than under the terms staled herein, constitutes fraud.
